Which should I get ,LCD/LED TV or Monitor?

I need a secondary display, to complement my laptop. The resolution 1920x1080 is enough for me (and I don't need anything too big: 20 - 23" is enough - but can be a little bigger).

Should I get a "normal" monitor or go for a TV instead?

Will the TV consume more power? How much more (in average)?
I will be using the secondary screen for work, mostly. Is a TV suited for close work? Or will it strain my eyes too much?
Image quality? Are there any gains, with a TV?
